Description Adam Coyne 2005-02-14 23:41:27 UTC

I upgraded to xmms-1.2.10-r13 and it doesn't stream audio from any source with an ip address as the url. (i.e. http://64.236.34.67:80/stream/1065). Instead it skips over it like it can't contact the source. This stream, and others like it, work fine if i downgrade to xmms-1.2.10-r12.

xmms use flags: -3dnow +alsa +arts -debug -directfb +esd +flac -jack +lirc +mad +mikmod +mmx +mp3 +nls +oggvorbis +oss +sndfile

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.upgrade to xmms-1.2.10-r13
2.play any stream from www.di.fm
3.

Actual Results:  
xmms skips to the next playable file as if it couldn't contact the server

Expected Results:  
should have played my sweet sweet techno

uhm.  -r12 and -r13 are identical.  Your problem is that you're using xmms-mad which doesn't support streaming.  Emerge xmms-mpg123, and you'll be good to go.

Comment 2 MickKi 2005-03-15 03:16:38 UTC

OK. If the plugins are now provided by external packages - shouldn't the ebuild check what the previous stable version was capable of doing (e.g. play streaming audio) and then pull in and emerge the appropriate plugins?

 . . . or at least flag up a warning asking the user to do so manually?

The way the ebuild works breaks previous functionality and has confused a couple of people:

I suggest that *ideally* this should be resolved as undesired behaviour, which ought to have been picked up by regression testing.  Nevertheless, I am not sure if it classifies as a bug (the http://bugs.gentoo.org/bugwritinghelp.html gives me a 404), so please resolve it ,or remove it as you see fit.
